LBJ Wildflower Center Light Festival

Last night we went to the Light Festival at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center.  It was so beautiful!  They had the Austin Philharmonic Orchestra and the Austin Children's Choir there performing.  There was also a harp performance in one of the back buildings.  There were over 3000 luminaries and tons of twinkle lights to look at.  They had arts and crafts for the kids.  Lily made a snowflake and a wreath.  Frosty the Snowman was there.  Lily and Madeline were very excited about the idea of Frosty, but then were a little scared when we actually saw him.

Madeline slept through most of the visit.  She didn't really nap yesterday and so she fell asleep on the way there.  She was so tired that when Scott picked her up she continued to sleep on him and was even snoring for a while!  It was so sweet!






I tried to capture some of what it looked like.  I just love luminaries.
